Arts and Public Engagement
Radical content and integrity of purpose... a debate that has been running for the best part of three decades...
an exploration into the innovative but often challenging range of art taking place outside conventional venues....

'This is the Beacon Arts Centre - a fabulous location...'
Galoshans is specific to Greenock. It means 'guising' young people performing to each other at Halloween - the Americans nicked the idea for trick or treating.
Halloween a time when two worlds touch (the supernatural and the natural).

I see the words moving around on the page and can't really understand what's happening. The sentences don't seem to connect for me. Perhaps only applicable if you tuned in?
